Re: Sinking on So CA
In May of the following year, Chase set out again, this time alone and bound for the north and distant Oregon. Again Chino carried the baggage; and again we are treated to a wealth of observation and anecdote. We learn of the grave of Cabrillo and the bitter rivalry between Hueneme and Oxnard; of the Santa Barbara of 1911 in contrast with the town that Richard Henry Dana saw in 1835; of Chinese Freemasons and the descendants of Dana himself; and of the many Mission buildings along the way, restored or in ruins - interesting reading for the student of Mission history. And plenty of incident as well: a near-fatal (for Chino) adventure with quicksand on the beach at Gaviota, and the hospitality of Spanish, Portuguese, Welsh, and Irish inhabitants of the coast provide a lively narrative setting for Chase's observations and digressions.
